El Matador Restaurant

I met up with my cousin today for lunch at El Matador! We were welcomed by two smiling employees. Our sever Annie was so sweet and on top of it. The food was amazing as always. I just want to add please remember that restaurants are still trying to make a comeback from the pandemic it may look like they have open tables but that doesn’t mean they have severs to serve you. So please be patient with all the staff they are doing their best. If you don’t want to wait for someone to cook your food stay home so you don’t ruin other peoples dinning.

This was my first time visiting El Matador. Decent food and helpful employees. The ambience is pretty nice. It was clean and well kept. We came around 2:00pm which is normally after the lunch rush is over but for some reason we still waited at least 15 minutes to get a table. I noticed that despite this there were quite a few tables that they never seated anyone in, so I don't think it was a table issue. The people I came with commented on how the portion sizes have decreased dramatically recently, but it was still enough to fill me up and most people took some of their food home in a to-go box. Overall the food was decent, but nothing to rave about. The rice was pretty bland, but the enchiladas I ordered and the beans were pretty good. They bring out chips with warm salsa and there was a separate salsa dish for everyone which was nice.

My favorites are: Seafood Enchilada and the Steak Salad. The waiters are always courteous and attentive to special needs like food allergies! Recently they added Navajo tacos as a special one day a week, and cookie skillet!

The food is delicious!!! I love the warm salsa with shredded cheese in it! I can never get enough of it. Plus the service is always outstanding! My kids love their food as well so it is always somewhere we know we can go and enjoy as an entire family. We've also done their take and bake meals, and it is just as fantastic as eating in the restaurant. They always have the food ready to pick up on time and it's super easy to pick up. I highly recommend this local restaurant as it is just a little taste of Bountiful, Utah.
